Code::Blocks doesn't compile on Ubuntu Linux with wx 2.5
rickg22:
Version 1.0 is a branch based on wx2.4.2 and is the current stable.
HEAD is the unstable, development branch for use with wx2.6.
Ceniza:
HEAD is more recent than VERSION_1_0 and it's the one using wxDockIt and it's present in HEAD because it's Code::Blocks's future! :wink:
wxDockIt was introduced to Code::Blocks when it was branched in CVS (well, I think that was the main reason to branch it), so HEAD is something like "testing" or "unstable" and VERSION_1_0 is "stable" :)
[edit]
Ok, about my compilation process: I finished compiling Code::Blocks CVS VERSION_1_0, but couldn't try it 'cause I had to turn off my 'puter and remove 512 of 768MB of RAM and 256MB aren't enough for XP (it's heavily using swap) even less to run both XP and an emulated Linux. I hope in a few hours arrive the 3x256MB so I'll have plenty of RAM (1GB!!! :wink:) to run it, test it and put my hands in the help plugin there.

Ok, I thought wxDockIt was the past and that the Code::Blocks project decided to give up it...

It seems that there are really more Windows C::B developers that Linux ones...

Ceniza, why don't you install CoLinux?

I have a real one installed, but in a 233MMX, a really bad choice to develop and work with heavy libraries such as wxWidgets.
Installing it in my P4 would be a waste of space and a waste of hardware too. I have nothing against Linux, it's nice, but it still needs more support, mainly for drivers, so I stick with Windows.
Actually, it runs pretty nice emulated, but just today ran out of RAM.

I've just checked the site, some links, the Wiki and looks nice, but I'm still low of RAM. I'll download it later and give it a try when I have the time.
BTW, thanks for it :)
